Whilst I think that the democrats have an uphill effort, I don’t think that the election is entirely lost for a number of reasons.

First - Trump is now the oldest would be President ever. That comes with all the sort of issues that Trump was throwing at Biden regards to age,

Women will undoubtedly vote for the democrats in very large numbers, due to the fact that the republicans intend to take away their reproductive rights.

Trumps plan to kick out thousands upon thousands of migrants will loose him the Latino vote as well as the black vote.

Plan 2025 will soon hit the general consciousness and this will frighten millions of the voters.

Trumps climate denial will lose him certainly the young vote as well as millions more.

In a debate it will be interesting, as Trump's difficulties with recalling accurately people/places/making coherent complex arguments will be shown up as opposed to it being Biden as the focus of "cognitive ability".

You don’t get it do you? Having been saved from death is a winning formula!

Wishing her and the Democrats all the luck in the world, be a complete disaster if Trump wriggles through as President again! Sorry, but to me, most of his supporters are knuckle dragging red necks

Kamala Harris will mop the floor with Trump in a debate. It will be interesting.

🤣🤣🤣
You wish.

IMO Kamala will hopefully beat him in debates- she’s a strong professional speaker and has had to fight all her life against adversity

Kamala doesn’t have a hope against Trump. No one else wants to stand against him as it ruins their chances for future elections!

Well, her big advantage - so far - is that she is much younger than Trump. 59.
Now HE is the old man in this race.
Serves him right. He thinks being old is a distinct handicap, although he's 78. Talk about deluded.

I really don’t know much about her at all - I must do some homework. She certainly has an uphill battle on her hands.

There has never been a male spouse of a US PRESIDENT and if Kamala is nominated as candidate and elected , her husband would be known as FIRST GENTLEMAN … I wish her every success in the election as she will have to face off with bully boy Trump
